Tito Jackson - Under Your Spell,
was produced by Executive Producers Steve Hart, Guy Hale, Mike
Zito, and Oliver Overton and released on the Gulf Coast Records/Hillside
Global label.
While Under Your Spell is
Tito Jackson's debut Blues release, he is a Rock & Roll Hall of Famer, and
a talented singer, songwriter, arranger, producer, and musician. A dedicated
entertainer, he has performed since the early 1960s (The Jackson Brothers, The
Jackson 5, The Jacksons, and as a solo performer). With this release, he shares
his passion for the Blues with his talent for songwriting and musicianship.
The 11-track release opens with Wheels
Keep Turning, written by Michael K. Jackson and Tito Jackson, with a big,
bold, sassy brass intro by Jason Parfait and Ian Smith leading the way. Stellar
guitar work by Michael K. Jackson and Tito Jackson, bass by Darrel Neal, and
organ and piano by Michael K. Jackson and Brandon Adams, make this opening song
a standout.
Next in the playlist is Love One
Another, another Michael K. Jackson and Tito Jackson collaboration. Stevie
Wonder layers in the harmonica on this catchy tune that will have you wanting
to clap along, so let yourself go and join in.

Tito brings on the funk for the
title track, Under Your Spell, which features Joe Bonamassa on guitar,
Michael K. Jackson providing background vocals and rhythm guitar, and Tito's
tremendous vocals. Next up is Dyin Over Here with Jason Parfait and Ian
Smith layering in dynamic horns to add punch to this catchy song.
Big Leg Woman has a 1950's
groove and a gorgeous organ and piano instrumental featuring Brandon Adams.
Also playing on this track are Tito Jackson on guitar, Kenny Neal on rhythm
guitar, Michael Harris on drums, Jason Parfait on lead sax and horns, Ian Smith
on horns, and Larry Bolden adding his vocals to Tito's.
Blues fans are in for a special
treat with the B.B. King 1964 song, Rock Me Baby written by BB King and
Joe Josea with its gorgeously long 1-minute instrumental intro. BB King's
youngest daughter, Claudette King joins Tito Jackson and Michael Lee on lead
vocals, and other important players include George Benson on lead guitar, James
"Boogaloo" Bolden on trumpet, Russell B. Jackson on bass and vocals, Eric
Demmer on saxophone, Lamar Boulet on trumpet, Darrell Lavigne on keyboards, and
Brandon Jackson on drums. I love the lyrics to this song "...rock me baby like my
back ain't got no bones..."
Other great tracks include I
Like It, You're Gonna Push Me Too Far, That Kind Of Love, and
All In The Family Blues. The release deftly closes with I Got Caught
(Loving in a Dream) written by Steven "Ice Buck" Powell and Tito Jackson,
with Tito Jackson on guitar, Tyree Neal on rhythm guitar, Brandon Adams on
organ, piano, and synthetic bass, Jason Parfait and Ian Smith on horns, Michael
Harris on drums, and vocals by Tito Jackson, Steven "Ice Buck" Powell, and
